In three years time I racked up 88,000 miles on it only needing tires, brakes, and fluids. After five years I traded it in and needed a rear wheel bearing at 96,000 miles. THAT was stop and go traffic, non-stop, for three years. It held up nicely, I wasn't always gentle either because it was a Spec-V. This is why I stuck with the brand, if I had Merican, it would not have held up. The Kia and Hyundai were garbage in the late 1990's to mid 2000's but are actually built a lot more durable now. Just my 2 cents.
